Why are school teachers such communists? Is it because their paycheck comes from a public system?

Consider;

Union provides benefits that exceed many commercial endeavors. There is NEVER a layoff, and tests that check for competence are rejected by the union without comment. There is little or no responsibility for the educational level the students achieve, yet the raises are manditory. Teachers get every holiday known to man, 3 months off during the summer, a bonus week off in the fall and the spring, plus they get personal time off as well.

The AVERAGE teacher is scheduled to work 180 days/year, now we deduct their personal days off.

Contrast that to the AVERAGE american. 365 days/yr - 104 (weekends) - 10 holidays - 10 vacation days; means that we work an average of 241 days/yr.

I did not include sick days, nor bereavement; as these are unscheduled in all cases.

Thus, we have teachers working 180 while the rest of us work 241, or teachers working 74.7% as many days as the rest of us. We can be fired, laid off or down-sized; teachers can not. If we abuse our positions, we are fired; teachers are sent home for a time WITH PAY.

It would be an oddity to find a teacher who would even consider communism to be bad, given how much benefits they are reaping from this system.

All school teachers are communists

All communists are enemies of the United States

Therefore, All school teachers are enemies of the United States.

Does that Aristotilian syllogism demonstrate the idiocy of the post?

The logic professor teaching the plebe class at USNA in the mid-50s would be spinning in his grave at the non-sensical nature of this entire exercise.
